Answer:
LiI has a covalent character because Li ion has high polarizing power due to its small size. Therefore LiI is soluble in alcohol. On the other hand KI is predominantly an ionic compound, therefore is insoluble in ethanol

Answer:
1. KO2 is a superoxide which containd odd number of electrons (unpaired electron). Therefore KO2 is paramagnetic in nature.
2.LiI is more soluble than KI in ethanol because Li has a covalent character because Li ion has high polarizing power due to its small size. Therefore, LiI is soluble in alcohol. On the other hand, KI is predominantly an ionic compound, therefore is insoluble in ethanol.
